Grade 4 worksheet on relative pronouns with a fun birthday cake illustration.

Let's solve the Relative Pronouns Worksheet step by step. The goal is to fill in each blank with the correct relative pronoun: who, whom, or whose.

🔹 Rules Recap:

- Who = subject of the clause (the person doing the action)
- Whom = object of the clause (the person receiving the action)
- Whose = shows possession (belonging to)

---

Now, let’s go through each sentence:

---

1. Do you know ______ is coming to the party?

- We're asking about a person who is doing the action (coming).
- So we need who as the subject.
✔ Answer: who

> ✔ *Do you know who is coming to the party?*

---

2. The student to ______ I spoke was very kind.

- "I spoke" — here, the student is the recipient of the action (spoken to).
- So we need whom (object of the preposition "to").
✔ Answer: whom

> ✔ *The student to whom I spoke was very kind.*

*(Note: In informal English, people often say "who", but grammatically, "whom" is correct here.)*

---

3. You are eating dinner with ______?

- "With" is a preposition. The person being eaten dinner with is the object.
- So use whom.
✔ Answer: whom

> ✔ *You are eating dinner with whom?*

*(Again, informally, "who" is used, but "whom" is correct.)*

---

4. I have no idea ______ notebook this is.

- We’re talking about ownership: whose notebook?
- Use whose.
✔ Answer: whose

> ✔ *I have no idea whose notebook this is.*

---

5. I saw a man ______ was at least seven feet tall.

- The man is the subject of the clause ("was at least seven feet tall").
- So use who.
✔ Answer: who

> ✔ *I saw a man who was at least seven feet tall.*

---

6. ______ is your favorite teacher?

- We're asking about a person (subject), so use who.
✔ Answer: Who

> ✔ *Who is your favorite teacher?*

---

7. She doesn't know ______ book was left behind.

- We’re referring to whose book — showing possession.
✔ Answer: whose

> ✔ *She doesn't know whose book was left behind.*

8. My mom asked ______ the card was for her.

- This is tricky. Let's look closely:
“My mom asked ______ the card was for her.”

Wait — this sentence seems off. It should probably be:

> *"My mom asked ______ the card was for."*
But it says: *"...was for her."*

So the sentence might mean:
"My mom asked [someone] if the card was for her."

But the structure is:
"My mom asked ______ the card was for her."

That implies:
She asked who the card was for — but then it says “for her” — which makes it confusing.

Possibility: It's meant to be:
"My mom asked who the card was for."
But here it says: "My mom asked ______ the card was for her."

This suggests that the speaker is asking:
"My mom asked who the card was for — and it was for her."

But the blank is likely expecting a pronoun.

Let’s re-analyze:
"My mom asked ______ the card was for her."

This could mean:
"She asked someone whether the card was for her."

So the missing word is who — because she asked who (person) about something.

But actually, the sentence structure is awkward.

Better interpretation:
It may be intended as:
"My mom asked ______ the card was for her." → meaning, “She asked who the card was for — and it was for her.” But that still doesn’t fit.

Alternatively, maybe it's:
"My mom asked whose the card was for her?" → That doesn’t make sense.

Wait — perhaps the sentence is meant to be:
"My mom asked ______ the card was for."
Then the answer would be who.

But as written:
"My mom asked ______ the card was for her."

This could be interpreted as:
“She asked who the card was for — and it was for her.” But the blank is before the clause.

Actually, the most logical reading is:
She asked who the card was for — but the sentence says “for her”, which is redundant.

Maybe it's a typo, and it should be:
"My mom asked ______ the card was for."

But assuming the sentence is correct as written:
“My mom asked ______ the card was for her.”

We can interpret it as:
She asked who the card was for — and it was for her.

So the blank is who.

But wait — the clause is “the card was for her” — that’s complete.

So the question is:
She asked who the card was for her?

That doesn’t make sense.

Alternative possibility:
Perhaps it's:
“My mom asked whose the card was for her?” → No, that’s not right.

Wait — better idea:
Maybe the sentence is:
“My mom asked who the card was for.” → Then the answer is who.

But since the sentence says “for her,” maybe it’s:
“My mom asked who the card was for — and it was for her.”

But the blank is just before the clause.

Let’s assume it’s a misprint, and the intended sentence is:

> "My mom asked who the card was for."

Then the answer is who.

But as written:
"My mom asked ______ the card was for her."

This is grammatically odd.

Wait — another interpretation:
“…asked ______ the card was for her” — meaning:
She asked who had made the card for her?
No — “was for her” is passive.

Best guess:
The sentence means:
She asked who the card was for — and it was for her.

So the blank is who.

✔ Answer: who

> ✔ *My mom asked who the card was for her.*
(Though awkward, it might mean: “She asked who the card was for — and it turned out it was for her.”)

Alternatively, it could be a typo and should be:
“My mom asked whose card was for her.” → Then answer is whose.

But that changes the meaning.

Given the options, and standard usage, who is likely intended.

But let’s consider:
If the sentence is:
“My mom asked ______ the card was for her.”

It could mean:
She asked who the card was for — and it was for her.

So who fits.

✔ Answer: who

9. For ______ did you make this birthday cake?

- “For” is a preposition. The person receiving the cake is the object.
- So use whom.
✔ Answer: whom

> ✔ *For whom did you make this birthday cake?*

(Note: Informal speech uses “who”, but “whom” is correct here.)

---

10. ______ car is parked in our garage?

- We’re asking about whose car — possession.
✔ Answer: Whose

> ✔ *Whose car is parked in our garage?*

---

🎉 Summary:

- who = subject
- whom = object (after prepositions or as object of verb)
- whose = possession

Practice helps! And remember: "Who" is always the subject, even when it sounds weird.
